If you don't get that Truecoat, you'll get rust!

Can't we just strap bombs to R/C cars like the bad guy did in "The Dead Pool" ?? That was awesome, watching Dirty Harry run away from a toy car...

I have 100s of knives in my kitchen. I got them at the "Everything's a $1" store.

Yes, AM radio back in the 1970s was strictly mono...

Why would an AM radio need two speakers?

Ok, so maybe I stand corrected. Maybe - I'll pay more attention to the little chrome lettering on the cars in front of me.

What the heck is "1000s"? That reads, "Honda scrapping one thousands of flood damaged cars."

Because anything more serious than an LRAD or water cannon (i.e., a lethal weapon) could be seen as an act of war and/or aggression and be met with equal force. Why do you think the Sea Shepherds don't just torpedo the whaling vessels? Because if they did the Japanese Self-Defense Forces would then be justified in…

Can they make a diesel that doesn't stink? I mean, "clean diesel" is great and all, but until I can pull up behind one at a traffic light and not have to jam on the "recirculate" button on my A/C, I will hate them. They stink. Sorry to break it to you, but if you drive a diesel, your car smells like a bus.

Did I miss something? Since when is "Chinese" a race?

Well, crap. Now I'm going to have to go buy a new console, so I can buy this game, so I can hoon a freakin' Pinto in a video game. Like I didn't have a better use for that $400 or so...

Regarding number 8, the land speed record cars - I disagree. Take a look at Thrust SSC - not boring looking, in my book.

Seconded. It doesn't get much more unadorned than the Chevette or its Pontiac cousin, the T-1000 (which I owned). 4-speed manual transmission, manual steering, manual windows and locks. About the only fancy thing was that the seats reclined.

And, once the derby is over, the kid can hoon that thing all over the house.

You'd be surprised how much member / beneficiary fraud is out there. But then, you read Gawker sites, so maybe you wouldn't...

Right - Gift tax does not apply - it's income.

I work in healthcare fraud analytics. Not "every other time," sure. More like "every 3rd time."

Why highlight gift? The car counts as income.

Because they work with iPod and iPhone, of course. That makes the product more valuable...

Oh yes, please, can we appeal to the NHTSA to ban them somehow?
